visual studio 2013 on msdn includes update 4? - visual-studio

i have visual studio 2013 installed and i download the update 4 package of 5.8gb but i am getting installation error "KB2829760LP The digital signature of the object did not verify." so i thought i should download the fresh visual studio 2013 package rather than trying to update what i currently have. so i searched over the internet and cant find out exactly if the current visual studio 2013 download package that is available on visualstudio.com includes the recently released update 4. what i am trying to ask is, if i download fresh vs2013 installation package from visualstudio.com will i still need to do update 4 seperately or it is already updated?
thanks

It is not clear where do you got your image from (visualstudio.com or from your MSDN subscription).
Nevertheless, both sites contain image downloads for Visual Studio including Update 4. You can see it directly on the visualstudio.com download page or when you are in the download area of your MSDN subscription.

I downloaded Visual Studio installer from Microsoft site and I have use the downloadball, then install feature to installed the ASP.NET features.
My question is that, where did the setup files stores to? I just want to know if possible I format my PC in order to install it without re downloading the files again.
Thanks.
It depends what you choose during the installation.
Usually, the packages are put in drive_letter:\ProgramData\Microsoft\VisualStudio\Packages.
That is true, only if you check during the installation 'Keep download cache', see the image below.

Visual studio 2013 sdk official not officially available anymore [duplicate]

I have Visual Studio 2013 and want to install SDK for it.
Can't add 2015 SDK because it is part of VS 2015 installation, I couldn't find a stand alone installation.
2013 SDK was removed from the official site.
It is also not contained in my installation package for VS.
Thanks
Apart from excellent answer by Sara Liu - MSFT, I was able to find a Visual Studio 2013 SDK - Microsoft Go! download page from google. The direct link was go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9832352 and it downloaded a +13Mb vssdk_full.exe
Please navigate to this: Download older versions of VS and click the ‘Join now for free’ to sign in with your Microsoft account, if you are not a subscriber. Then confirm to join the VS Dev Essential if you have not joined before. Click ‘Downloads’ and search with the keyword ‘Visual Studio 2013 SDK’, you will get the download link as below:

Not able to install Nuget Package Manager in Visual Studio 2015

Until now I only used Visual Studio for Business Intelligence development and now I have to do something in C# that uses Google Drive API which has to be installed through NuGet Package Manager. Unfortunately I don't see this particular package in Visual Studio Extensions and Update manager. I though it may be related to lack of Tools > NuGet Package Manager > Package Manager Console option in my VS, so I wanted to install package manager. I downloaded .vsix file, but when I try to install, it fails with message This extension is not installable on any current installed products. I got VS 2015, 2013 and 2010 installed.
So if I'm not able to install package manager, there is at least any way to install google drive api without involving NuGet?
Drive api package name: Google.Apis.Drive.v3
EDIT: I did reset all Visual Studio settings since it was set for Business Intelligence development, but this didn't help as well.
Please make sure your Visual Studio 2015 has installed the latest update. The latest version for Visual Studio 2015 should be version 14.0.25431.01.
If your Visual Studio 2015 is the latest version, please try repair your Visual Studio 2015 to check whether there has any installation issue.
And you also can install nuget packages without NuGet Package Manager. Please download the NuGet package and unzip it to local folder, which will list all content of this package. Then add the dlls in the unzipped folder into your project through Add Reference.
You do realize that SSDT and BIDS are for use with project types that are specific to SQL Server business intelligence. Business Intelligence Development Studio is the primary environment that you will use to develop business solutions that include Analysis Services, Integration Services, and Reporting Services projects.
To my knowledge you are not going to be able to install NuGet on it or use it to develop an actually C# application.
I am going to take a wild guess here and say you are trying to use google drive with a Script task. You can do this I did it a number of years ago. The set up is a bit weird. Your going to have to create a normal C# application in NORMAL visual studio with Nuget and it will install all of the Dlls for you at that time.
Now that you have all of the dlls. You are going to have to dump them in GAC and the folders that SSIS needs
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\PipelineComponents
The 100 part changes depending upon which version of Sql server you are using
2005 = 90
2008 = 100
2014 = 110 (I think I cant remember)
Once the dlls are in the correct folders you should then be able to use it in a scripting task.
Note: I am not 100% sure any of this will even work anymore. When I did it the client library still supported .net 3.5. Now you need to be able to use .Net 4.5 I am not sure if the newer version of Sql server will be able to handle the higher level of .net dll or if they all require 3.5.
Checked with a coworker his guess is that Sql server 12+ should support .Net 4.5 dlls.

Visual Studio update 3 installer is trying to install update 2 instead

.NET Core 1.0.0 was released yesterday and it needs VS update 3 to be installed.
So I downloaded the installer from here and tried installing but this weird issue is happening:
It's as if the installer is trying to get update 2 instead of update 3. I'm already on update 2 and it's telling me that. I tried searching but didn't find anything on the subject. Also tried restarting my machine.
And now I'm being blocked by this since I already uninstalled .NET Core RC2, and .NET Core 1.0.0 doesn't want to install before VS update 3.
Forget the downloaded update, just go to Programs and Features, double click Visual Studio 2015 Update 2 and choose "Modify" from the VS installer options. Update 3 will be available there.
Check this -> https://msdn.microsoft.com/vs-knownissues/vs2015-update3
"Workaround:
Instead of installing Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 by using VS2015.3.exe, install the update by using a full product installer. You can find installers for "Visual Studio 2015 with Update 3" on the Visual Studio download page. Select the "Visual Studio 2015 with Update 3" download that matches the edition you already have installed, whether Community, Professional, or Enterprise.
Alternatively, you can follow the steps in Updating an installation to force an update to the layouts."
I faced this problem
I solved it by downloading the offline iso file then installed it from the iso file
you can find offline iso file
http://www.kunal-chowdhury.com/2016/06/visual-studio-2015-update-3.html
the direct links
Visual Studio Community 2015 with Update 3 - iso
https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=615448&clcid=0x409
Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 - ISO
https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=708984
A workaround is to not use the download. Instead, open Program and Features from the Control Panel. Select "Visual Studio 2015 with Updates" (or your equivalent), and click Change. From the installation dialog, click Modify and you should see Update 3 available to be selected.
After downloading the full installer Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 - ISO I ran it from admin command prompt with vs2015.3.exe /Passive
With the /Passive switch it finally installed the upate!

Installing Lync 2013 sdk client side on visual studio 2015

I am trying to install the Lync 2013 SDK on Visual studio 2015, but I get an error saying "MSVS2010 SP1 or higher not found. Go here to download and install"
I've looked up the issue on the web, and the closest thing to a solution is installing a cumulative update, but that was for VS2013, nor can I find any Place to actually download the file.
What do I have to do to complete the Lync 2013 SDK setup?
To install the SDK, you can fake that you have an earlier version of Visual Studio. At least, that seemed to work for me.
What I did was export the registry entries at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\Setup\vs, searched and replaced VisualStudio\14.0 with VisualStudio\12.0 and imported those registry entries again.
That allowed me to install the SDK and I subsequently removed those imported entries again.
Please make sure (using regedit) that you are not overwriting any existing entries of course.
